Just a thought: I was having trouble using my VUDU Account on my Smart TV in my Bedroom. My wife uses Netflix all the time in there and the one time I try to watch a movie from my VUDU account it would run for 30 seconds and then the screen would go Green (also pixelated). After many hours of trying to figure out what the problem was, I figured out that the Software had been up dated to Accommodate HDX and the TV was only able to play the movies in HD or SD. I wondering if Netflix has a feature where you could adjust the picture resolution like in VUDU. You could then try it at a lower setting. I do have Netflix but have never had any problems. But it may be worth a looking into.

It's a feature you enable in your settings named "wi-fi calling." Your phone functions just like normally, making or receiving calls. But Instead of the calls occurring using the wireless signal of your cell phone carrier, they occur over your Internet connection. You need the right phone and you need to enable the feature in your settings. Other than that, you wouldn't know the difference since it's business as usual and there are no extra things to do when placing or receiving calls. When I am at home, my phone automatically picks up my router and all calls occur over the Internet. This is nice if you are limited to a certain number of minutes a month on your wireless plan, since calls over the Internet don't count against your plan. Not all phones can do this. For example, you need the newest iPhone (6 or 6s), or a pretty new Android model. And a few carriers do not yet make this available to their customers regardless of what phone they have. What phone do you have and who is your carrier?

Vladimir, here are the promised pics. Sorry they are so bad, but it is dark and rainy today. Thank God for cozy greenhouses! I pushed the dracaena out of the way for its close up. The box has a seal along the inside to make it "weatherproof" but the signal comes through just as strong, it seems. I will have to unscrew it to get inside there if the router needs to be reset or anything. This is a view of the back side. I see why my husband peeled off that price tag now lol. I think he mounted it there because it was easiest, not sure if there were any other other reasons. Hope this helps!

I have LG front loads which I love - bought them for the features but not the wifi connectivity, though it offers that. Not long ago I installed the app just to see what it might do (planned to uninstall because of security issues). The app was useless, no real features that I'd ever find remotely useful... and when I walked 2 ft away it dropped out. I did (for fun) attempt to access the app while standing in front of them, and it was too buggy to work. Personally, I'd buy for other features and read reviews, never wifi connectivity. I uninstalled the app as I'd planned. Karen, consider what you might use it for... if you're not home, would you be comfortable adding to the drying time - or concerned about overheating your clothes or dryer? Why start a washer if you aren't home - no one is there to load it and mine is very quiet. Do you just want to know when the cycle finishes? I thought that might be handy but honestly, mine makes a tune when done, and I hear it anywhere pretty much unless I'm working in the yard - and I don't carry my phone there. If I'm not at home, I can't pull the clothes out anyway and put them in the dryer. My dryer also makes a tune, but sometimes I need to remove and untangle clothes. Some offer diagnostics if experiencing an issue, but these same diagnostics are on my front panels. I don't wish to start or stop drying or washing via wifi, so basically, I don't see a good use for such a thing, even without the possible security issues.
